Microphallus
''Microphallus'' is a genus of parasitic trematodes (flukes) in the family Microphallidae. The Greek name means "tiny penis".
== Hosts ==
They are parasitic on a variety of molluscs, crustaceans, birds, and mammals, some species having complex life cycles involving more than one host.
For example, ''Microphallus piriformes'' parasitizes the rough periwinkle (''Littorina saxatilis''); when these are eaten by herring gulls it infects the bird and lays its eggs in the bird's feces to infect new periwinkles.
Other intermediate hosts include, for example New Zealand mud snail ''Potamopyrgus antipodarum''〔〔Levri E. P. & Fisher L. M. (2000) "(The Effect of a Trematode Parasite (''Microphallus Sp.'') on the Response of the Freshwater Snail ''Potamopyrgus antipodarum'' to Light and Gravity )". ''Behaviour'' 137(9): 1141-1151.〕 and others.
